HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES. Thursday. September 22. 1966 Long Runs Give Dufur Team Edge Although the lone Cardinals rolled up an averaqe in statls tios, long runs by Dufur spoil ed lone High's home football opener September 9. Four of the visitors five touchdowns came on lone gallops to sink the Cards. lone matched every touch down of the winners but one. They failed to score In the sec ond quarter, and Dufur had a 13-6 halftime lead. Each team tallied three times In the sec ond half. Loss for the Cardinals hurt doublv because Keith Nelson, halfback who was counted on as one of the mainstays for the vear. was injured- He suffered what appeared to be a pinched nerve, and may be lost for the season, Coach Gordon Meyers said. Dufur opened the scoring, tallving on a 67-yard run In the first quarter. Nelson countered for lone later in the quarter on a one-yai'i plunge. Dufur made its point but lone missed its conversion, and the quarter ended 7 to 6 for the visitors. Another long run for Dufur came in the second quarter, when a man broke away and went 33 yards for a touchdown. The point was missed, and the half came with Dufur leading, 13 to 6. Eddie Sherman came up with the equalizing touchdown in the third quarter when , he scored on a one-yard plunge. Monte Crum ran the extra point, and the score was knotted for a time at 13-all. But the tie was quickly brok en. A Dufur gridder took the next kickoff on his own 29 and rambled all the way. "This was the decider," said Coach Meyers after the game. The third quarter ended 19 13 for Dufur. Another long gallop gave Dufur a 12 point atvantat! early in the fourth quarter, this run being good for 6S yards and six points. But lone came back again with Sherman turning in a good sprint of his own, tallving from the 28. Dufur cranked the margin back to 12 points when it scored on a pass from the 5 yard mark er, lone countered with another comeback try, Sherman passing to Virgil Morgan from the 10 for a TD and six points. But that was all, and the Cardinals end ed six points short. Coach Meyers club had a slight bulge in statistics. The Cards made 258 yards from rushing against 254 for Dufur. In passing, lone also had a margin with 42 yards via the air against 14 for Dufur. Total yardage was 300 for lone as compared with 268 for Dufur. Loss of Nelson reduces the number on the Cardinal squad to 14. Coach Meyers said, and leaves him short on manpower. Monte Crum will take over Nelson's place. Chris Lovgren does the signal calling at quar terback, and Sherman is the other starting halfback. Anoth er halfback is Seal Christopher son, and a second quarterback will be Bobbv Ball when he is able to join the squad after re covering from a shooting acci dent. In the line are Leon Maglll, Jim Swanson and Pat McElli gott at ends; Morgan, center; and Leland Magill, Chuck Nel son and Frank Halvorsen, guards.
